Presentation
R1-1.1 It is common practice to plot BRDF with respect to the angle from the specular beam,
. If scatter is
measured only in the PLIN,

i
. However, in the more general case for scatter out of the PLIN:

(R1-1)
R1-1.2 This is a useful angular reference for specular samples. However, when using this format, care must be
taken that
is not confused with
s
in the calculation of BRDF. This presentation format is normally used only
when
passes through zero, that is, when the scatter scan includes the specular beam.
R1-1.3 The terms “forward scatter” and “back scatter” refer to PLIN scatter directions for which
is respectively
positive or negative. Note that
continues to increase as a negative angle when passing the surface normal since
the sign of
s
switches in the above equation.
R1-2
Presentation
R1-2.1
=
o
, where
= sin
s
and
o
= sin
i
, is a method of expressing the angle between the specular and
scatter directions in direction cosine space along the surface for scatter in the PLIN. This is a very useful
normalization when scatter results only from surface microroughness, and the grating equation:
fn
is
sinsin (R1-2)
where:
= wavelength of the incident flux,
f = linear spatial frequency for the microroughness in the x or y direction, and
n = diffraction order.
This equation can be used to relate
s
to the frequency, f. Only the first order (n = 1) is significant for roughness
much less than the wavelength. BRDF can now be interpreted as the ability of each frequency to scatter light. If
BRDF is plotted against a
scale it may be independent of
i
and proportional to f. If the surface behaves in this
way the BRDF is “shift invariant.”

R1-3 Reflectance Factor
R1-3.1 A measure of diffuse reflectance in common use is the reflectance factor, R, that is the ratio of flux
propagated from source to receiver in a reflectometer with a specimen, to the flux propagated with a perfectly
reflecting diffuser. Regarding a scatterometer as a very directional bi-directional reflectometer, the following
relationship between R and BRDF is obtained as follows:

Additional information can be found in ASTM Practice E 167. Note that reflectance factor and specular reflectance
share the same symbol, R, but they are not the same parameter.

MODEL DEPENDENT CALCULATED PARAMETERS

R2-1 Total Integrated Scatter (TIS)
R2-1.1 TIS can be calculated from BRDF by integrating BRDF over the hemisphere.

Typically a 5° total angle
“hole” is left around the specular beam since specular light is not included in total integrated scatter (see SEMI
MF1048).
R2-1.1.1 For an isotropic surface, measure in-plane BRDF at
i
= 0 and calculate the expected total integrated
scatter by integrating over the angle limits specified in SEMI MF1048.

R2-1.1.2 Sample specular reflectance, R, must be included because total integrated scatter is referenced to reflected
and not incident power. The cos
s
term must be included because BRDF is defined in terms of the projected
receiver aperture. This comparison between total integrated scatter and BRDF may not be exact since the total
integrated scatter detector is less sensitive to light incident on the detector at large angles and if low f (close to
specular) scatter dominates, the 5° hole size is critical. In addition a TIS instrument is not polarization selective.
R2-2 Roughness
R2-2.1 The rms surface roughness,
, is an often quoted number that can be obtained from direct profile
measurements with stylus or optical profilometers. It can also be inferred from total integrated scatter when,

R2-2.1.1 The user must confirm the usefulness of this
calculation based on the particular measurement
circumstances. It may have strong frequency limitations and not agree with surface roughness derived from optical
or mechanical profile instruments (which can have different spatial frequency limits
14
).
R2-3 Power Spectrum
R2-3.1 The surface power spectral density function (PSD) can be calculated from the BRDF through a scatter
model. For example, the grating equation model discussed in §R1-2 shows that high frequency surface
perturbations scatter light far from specular and low frequency perturbations scatter close to specular. The PSD
shows the amount of modulation versus f , that is, the square of the Fourier transform of the surface profile. Since it
is a sample property, the same PSD should be obtained regardless of wavelength and incident angle dependent
differences in the BRDF data.
R2-3.2 Wavelength scaling is another check on system calibration. Smooth, clean, nonabsorbing front surface
reflectors should yield the same PSD for different BRDF measurement wavelengths. If the instrument does not
wavelength scale on appropriate samples, the BRDF measurement may be suspect. Polished molybdenum and
